Clinical Pearl of the Day: Comprehensive Metabolic Panel vs Complete Blood Count Labs

  • Complete Blood Count (CBC): A CBC lab helps your health professional diagnose conditions such as infection, anemia, and several other disorders.
  • Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP-14): With eGFR is a group of 14 laboratory tests ordered to give information about the status of the liver, kidneys, and electrolyte and acid/base balance.

Explanation:

  • CBC gives important information about the numbers and kinds of cells in the blood, especially red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
  • CMP-14 tests give the status of blood sugar and blood proteins. Physicians may ask for one or both of these tests every 3 to 6 months, based on the disease conditions the patient may have.
